Abstract

It is increasingly argued that, in a world where trade, business and finance, and science and technology cross national borders, attempts by national governments and firms to appropriate the fruits of national technology programs are doomed to fail. Japan, although a late globalizer, is becoming increasingly globalized. However, Japanese policymakers have responded by internationalizing Japan's technology policy while retaining its national objectives. This paper examines if these policies are doomed to fail or if they can be justified and, if the latter, whether the Japanese case is special or if it is at least to some extent valid for large Western countries.
